´´It wasn´t until....it wasn´t until I got to be around 28 or 29 that I started to, think back about what my parents, what my folks had done with their lives ´cause I was, when I was growing up, all I remember is my father used to get up way before me....if you´d come in late, he´d sit in the kitchen at night in the dark, smoking a cigarette, drinking a six-pack of beer....and it wasn´t until I got, I got a little older that I started to think about all the jobs he had, he gave, the stuff he gave up for me and I wrote this song for him.....so if your folks are working every day at a job they can´t stand.....for you, this song´s for you.....´´

´´I remember I used to....when I was about nine years old, I used to come down in the morning and my mother used to always have, used to always have the radio on in the kitchen, at the time there was a station in New York, it was a top, top 40-station, it was called WMCA....and I remember it wasn´t until I started listening to the radio....and I heard, heard my first rock´n´roll that I thought that....that life didn´t have to be the way that it was, that there was other things you could do, that there was possibilities, there was chances you could take if you´d go out and take ´em....and I remember my mother and my father, they never got to take those chances and it´s easy to miss ´em (?) so if this is your first year away from home....this is for you....´´
